Yes folks Jim is eating Humble Pie and Crow today. [:(] [V] After making such comments that UP RR didn't have the class to purchase a good sounding horn I have learned firsthand the truth. THEY HAVE AND DO. Today I heard a good sounding horn and since I was going to make a trip to the store I made a sidetrip to the tracks to see what I thought was going to be a Southern Pacific unit leading a UP train westbound. When I arrived I found a spot to see the tracks and train. Low and behold the train comes by. Guess what? The lead engine was not a S P engine but a UP engine. [B)] [:0] I had to pinch myself because this JUST had to be a dream. [8D] It wasn't a dream. The lead engine was UP 4373 which is an SD70M. I still can't believe it. I was SURE this was going to be a Southern Pacific unit or another railroads engine just being used by UP. I was wrong. [:(] Now from the ground view I had I couldn't see the horn. Does anyone know what horn these units have? It does sound much better than the horn on the GE units pulling UP coal trains. BTW, Lunch is at 1 and supper will be at 5. Come join me for my crow eating party. [dinner]
